I strongly believe that we are all doing the best we can at any time with the tools and experiences we have available to us. In building our therapeutic relationship and throughout our work together, you can expect to feel validated, heard, and challenged as we collaborate to initiate your desired changes. We will work together to create a safe and supportive environment where we can set goals, explore areas of challenge, and reconnect with internal resources. As an AuDHD clinician myself, I enjoy working with high masking autistics, AuDHDers, and ADHDers to provide neurodivergent-affirming and holistic care.
I also enjoy working with and have extensive experience serving the needs of the LGBTQIA+ community. I work to provide an affirming space with unconditional positive regard to support any needs and goals you may have. These may include sexual and gender exploration, discussing and exploring gender-affirming needs, and formation of positive relationships.
I practice using an eclectic treatment approach, incorporating trauma-informed, affirming, and experiential work into my practice. I believe every client’s care should be individualized and feedback is encouraged as we work together to find what resonates and release what doesn’t. I look forward to meeting and sharing a space with you!
